This station is close to the Citibank's Malaysian headquarters, as well as the US Embassy, the Singapore High Commission, the Canadian High Commission, and the British High Commission, which are all located in the area of Jalan Tun Razak, known as "Embassy Row".
It was meant to be an interchange station with the two rail lines. However, due to cost cutting measures, the stations will be classified as a connecting station. Though in the future, it will be integrated with the MRT Putrajaya Line.[1]
This station was opened on 1 June 1999, as Phase Two of the PUTRA LRT system, which ran from Masjid Jamek to Terminal PUTRA (Gombak). The exterior building design of the Ampang Park LRT underground station is done by NEUformation. The station shape, created as a series of inclined glass planar surfaces, implies motion in keeping with the concept of the LRT system as a future mode of transit.[2]
Layout
The station consists of three levels, with the entrance on ground level while the ticketing area, concourse and platforms are underground. Similar to all Kelana Jaya Line underground stations, the Ampang Park station features an island platform sandwiched between two railway tracks for each direction.
